Pushing through the market square so many mothers sighing

News had just come over we had five years left to cry in

News guy wept and told us earth was really dying

Cried so much his face was wet then i knew he was not lying

 

I heard telephones opera house favorite melodies

I saw boys toys electric irons and tv's

My brain hurt like a warehouse it had no room to spare

I had to cram so many things to store everything in there

 

And all the fat skinny people and all the tall short people

And all the nobody people and all the somebody people

Never thought i'd need so many people

 

A girl my age went off her head hit some tiny children

If the black hadn't a-pulled her off i think she would have killed them

A soldier with a broken arm fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac

A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest

And the queer threw up at the sight of that

I think i saw you in an ice cream parlor

Drinking milk shakes cold and long

Smiling and waving and looking so fine

Don't think you knew you were in this song

 

And it was cold and it rained so i felt like an actor

And i thought of ma and i wanted to get back there

Your face your race the way that you talk

I kiss you you're beautiful i want you to walk

 

We've got five years stuck on my eyes

Five years what a surprise

We've got five years my brain hurts a lot

Five years that's all we've got

 

We've got five years what a surprise

Five years stuck on my eyes

We've got five years my brain hurts a lot

Five years that's all we've got

 

We've got five years stuck on my eyes

Five years what a surprise

We've got five years my brain hurts a lot

Five years that's all we've got

 

We've got five years what a surprise

We've got five years stuck on my eyes

We've got five years my brain hurts a lot

Five years that's all we've got

 

Five years

Five years

Five years

Five years
